The imminent arrival of the six-blade shaver: a sloppy unscientific analysis

(Dear Readers: I promise to get back to insightful technology punditry very soon — but this was too good to pass up.)

A lot of people have written about the new five-blade razors from Gillette (including one of my new Yahoo! co-workers, Jeffrey), but I haven’t seen anyone ask the obvious question: when will the six-blade arrive? I decided to do some analysis, thinking that there must be a corollary to Moore’s Law, except for shaving.

The really cool thing about that graph is that it suggests that within a few years, we’ll be shaving with shavers that sport infinity blades, which suggests that our beards must then exist at all points in time and space simultaneously, which for me was really the point of growing my beard in the first place.

Recently searched to itself for the razor. All it could not be defined on what to stop: to a safety razor, an open razor or electric. Here double edge safety razorjapanese straight razorsbest electric razors has found a wide choice of razors. At everyone the pluses and minuses. But nevertheless I tend to a safety razor choice more. And you that will recommend?
